FRANCHISE

NOW ENROLLING SPRING SHOWS

spring is in bloom with all new shows!

Our Performance Program is what School of Rock is all about! Students are placed in shows and assigned songs to build musical proficiency. The student and the instructor work on individual parts in private lessons, and bring the songs back to the group rehearsal, where they learn about teamwork, collaboration, and playing in a band.  This all culminates with an end-of-season performance at a rock venue.  Signups for our new season begin now!

OUR NEW SEASON STARTS THE WEEK OF JANUARY 8TH! CONTACT US TODAY TO SAVE YOUR SPOT IN THE BAND!

ROCK 101: BEST OF THE 2010'S

AGES 7-10 | REHEARSALS: MONDAYS, 6:00pm-7:30pm or wednesdays, 5:00pm-6:30pm

School of Rock pays tribute to the past decade of Rock and Roll! The 2010s proved that rock and roll is alive and well, with diverse artists such as Adele, Imagine Dragons, Tame Impala, H.E.R., and St. Vincent all rising to prominence in the music world. These current artists combine modern production techniques with retro-sounding riffs and song structures, resulting in today's chart topping hits. While the music itself has generally evolved somewhat from decades past - less guitar solos, more keyboards, and more influence from Hip Hop and R&B - the spirit of Rock and Roll remains as vital as ever. This show will be a stylistically diverse recap of the best music from the decade, featuring modern takes on Punk (Green Day, My Chemical Romance), Blues (Gary Clark Jr., Black Keys), Pop (Taylor Swift, Katy Perry), Rock and Roll (Greta Van Fleet, The Dead Weather), and more! A great show for students of any instrument and experience level.

ROCK 102: ROLLING STONES VS. THE BEATLES

AGES 10-13 | REHEARSALS: TUESDAYS, 5:00PM-7:00PM

The Rolling Stones and The Beatles were integral to the development of 1960s counterculture and popular music’s recognition as an art form.  In other words, they made being in a band “cool”.  By the mid 1960’s, both bands achieved international stardom, leading the British Invasion of the United States pop market and breaking numerous sales records.  The music created by both groups has been cherished ever since it’s release, and is regarded as some of the most influential art of all time (no big deal). Listen to:  “Hey Jude”, “Come Together”, “Paint it Black”, and “Satisfaction”.

ROCK 103: WARPED TOUR

AGES 13-HS SENIOR | REHEARSALS: THURSDAYS, 5:00PM-7:00PM

The Vans Warped Tour was a traveling rock tour that toured the United States (including three or four stops in Canada) annually each summer since 1995. It was the largest traveling music festival in the United States, and is the longest-running touring music festival in North America. The first Warped Tour took place in 1995, and the skateboard shoe manufacturer Vans became the main sponsor of the tour starting with the second tour in 1996, when it became known as ""The Vans Warped Tour"". The tour, which started in 1995 as an alternative rock festival, switched its focus to punk and the rest is history! Slide on your vans, throw on your studded belts and get ready to headbang (please don’t mosh…) to bands such as Rancid, Anti-Flag, NOFX, Blink-182, Deftones, Coheed and Cambria and more.

Listen to: Rancid, Anti-Flag, NOFX, Blink-182, Deftones, Coheed and Cambria, Flogging Molly, Four Year Strong, Green Day, Good Charlotte, No Doubt, The Offspring, etc.

ADVISORY - SOME LYRICAL CONTENT IN THIS SHOW MAY NOT BE APPROPRIATE FOR ALL STUDENTS

KISS rose to prominence in the 1970s with a string of hard rock hits and live shows that generated a thrilling visual experience, becoming one of the biggest-selling bands in rock history. While the blood spitting, fire breathing, and extreme marketing sometimes overshadowed the music, behind the face paint KISS were four talented musicians with a gift for writing great, catchy rock and roll songs. Many rock bands of today cite KISS as a main influence and inspiration to pursue the life of a touring musician. Beyond the visual spectacle, KISS is a band with a surprisingly diverse catalog that requires some serious musicianship. For guitarists, the KISS show will incorporate several approaches to rock soloing, as KISS had 5 different lead guitarists throughout their career. Gene Simmons’ bass playing will certainly challenge students' ability to play melodic riffs and simultaneously maintain groove. Drum students will love the many rocking drum breaks and big fills within KISS’ 50-year catalog of material. This is a show the whole family will have fun singing along to, featuring hits like “Rock and Roll All Nite”, “Beth”, and “Shout It Out Loud”.
